The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A methodical and tense dungeon crawl where careful observation and logic are rewarded over brute force.

What players say

Players adore the exploration and puzzle design, calling it the peak of the dungeon crawler genre. A persistent crash-on-save bug mars the experience for many, though some say a 4gb patch fixes it. Opinions are divided on whether the outdoor areas improve or weaken the dungeon-crawling focus.
